Good morning, folks! With the kickoff of the Bike Commute Challenge comes our annual “Photo of the Day” meant to help give faces to the over 12,000 people who participate in the Challenge throughout the month of September. The first entry in this year’s series comes to us from the fine folks at the Washington State Department of Ecology – Vancouver Field Office, whose team boasts an impressive nine riders this year. Well done! Great to see the Department of Ecology join the dozens of other Bike Commute Challenge teams based in Southwest Washington.

Want to be featured on our blog? We’d love to have you share your inspirational photos of your Commute Challenge team. Whether it’s a packed indoor bike parking facility, photos of a party held for bike commuters or just something wonderful you stop and snap a picture of during your ride to work, we’d be honored to feature it on our website! Check out the button on the side of your Trip Log page and send us your best photos.
